But
that's only half the story. There's hot smoked fish, like Arbroath Smokies, in this case haddock which means it's cooked by hot smoke and sold cold. Only needs heating up, though.

And cold smoked fish, like kippers, which are herring, flavoured by smoke but not cooked. Needs some time in the oven to cook.

Both nom.

Indeed
hated fish as a kid.

As an adult, I like nothing more.

Which
are heaven, in my view. As are kippers.

Yesterday, I had hot-smoked herring, called Jubilee Herring by my once-loved fishmonger. She was lightly rebuked. She blushed and said "I ken. I'm telt it's marketing bit it ken it's (whispered) shite."

Hot smoked herring is, em, aright. Prefer them natural, like fannies.
